We can't even require a $10 ID card to make sure voting is fair and square because it disenfranchises the poor...
You sure? NY already charges these fees for a handgun permit ($105 for filing, $50 for a safety course (though, sometimes you can get them for free), and depending on the county, an addition $75 for fingerprinting (though, my county is free). Plus $3 for each time you make an addition/subtraction of a handgun to your permit.
Besides, if you can afford $250 and (way) up for a gun of any type, not sure you can call the fees "disenfranchising the poor".
